SafeFire’s Range Safety Officers will be observing the bays at all times to ensure all rules are being followed.
These range rules are agreed upon when signing our liability waiver. Serious or repeated violations of these rules may result in removal from the range without a refund.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, if you bring your own firearm you can use your own ammo. In addition to bringing your ammo, you can also pick up your own brass. Picking up brass is limited to the brass that is behind the red firing line so your safety is not at risk.
Children must be over the age of 10 as well as fit a height requirement which is 4′ 10″. Shooters under the age of 18 must be accompanied by his/her parent or legal guardian and are free with a paying adult. Shooters aged 6-10 who have completed our Youth Intro to Firearms course are able to shoot on our range with a legal parent/guardian.
We allow non-parent/guardians to escort minors to events and to shoot on the range as long as a Parent Permission and Release of Liability form has been completed. Non-guardian escorts include: Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Friends, etc. This form must be completed in full and brought with the child on the day they visit.
No. It is on a walk-in basis. You can make a lane reservation if you are a Gold or Platinum member by calling the range check-in desk or by visiting our members page.
Our range has 18 lanes available to the public, and 9 lanes available exclusively to our platinum members. To learn more about our Platinum Memberships, click here.
We DO NOT allow tracers, steel core, steel jacket (ie. Tulammo or Wolf), or armor piercing (ie. PMC LAP, green tips, etc.) A great way to test this out before you come to the range is take a magnet to the tip of your bullet. If the magnet wants to hold on to the tip, it cannot be shot. If it wants to cling to the case and not the actual bullet, you should be good to go. Any round rated over 3,600 fps or 3,600 ft lbs of energy is also prohibited. Please note – we WILL be checking all ammo. Both SafeFire cashiers and RSOs will be notified and checking all personal ammo brought in.
They are allowed with restrictions. The target cannot be further than 30 feet away, and shells can only be slugs. Also Shockwave type firearms (Shotgun Pistols) must have a brace in use to be shot here.
Each member is allowed to bring up to two guests at a time. If the member brings more than two guests, the additional shooter(s) must purchase their own lane.
Pregnant women are strongly discouraged from shooting/being on the range due to health concerns from sound percussion and lead contamination.
If you want to shoot one of our rentals, you need to bring your own firearm with you or bring a buddy. This is all for safety purposes and our lawyers insist on it. Besides, isn’t shooting more fun when you bring a friend?
Yes, US citizen shooters 18 and older MUST possess a VALID government issued photo ID or passport. When shooting, you are required to give your ID to the front desk along with a credit/debit card. This is for your safety and ours in case of an emergency as well as liability.
If you are a Foreign National visiting, you MUST bring your passport. For further information for Foreign Nationals, click here.
Closed toe shoes, pants and high necked shirts are recommended.
Although being a member gives you extra perks, you do not need to be a member to shoot on the range.
Yes, but you must be Holster Certified. To learn about certification options and download our holster certification application, click here.
All firearms need to be in a holster, case, bag or box until you’re on the range and in your assigned lane. If you do not have your WA CPL, you will need to transport your firearm separately from your magazine and ammo.
The new WA magazine law does not have any affect on coming to practice or compete at SafeFire with magazines over 10 rounds.
